A good immature DAB+ radio with a disastrous user manual.
Visually nice design and also well made. The reception with DAB+ is good. The sound is powerful with lots of bass. The operating instructions are completely wrong and unusable. It describes functions and buttons that do not exist. The station memory on the remote control from 5 - 10 does not work either (a button 10 does not exist either?!). During interruptions in reception, the part hangs up regularly.
Pro
- good DAB+ reception
- good and powerful sound
Contra
- hangs regularly
- catastrophic manual

Lousy software
The device hangs from time to time and has to be restarted. The remote control app is full of errors and consumes an enormous amount of battery. Even the operation on the device is full of errors. Suddenly, functions are no longer available.
Pro
- Good design
- Good sound
Contra
- Software bugs
- Catastrophic operator guidance
- Device hangs itself
- Remote control app unusable

All-rounder!
The memory allocation is a bit tricky.
It makes sense to use AirMusic, free app, for Android or Mac.Pro
- very many possibilities
- State of the art technology
- DAB , Internet radio and USB MP3
- Super price / performance
Contra
- so far hardly anything really negative noted
- no Buetooth
- Spotify only with Payabo

Mediocre is an exaggeration!
The radio worked for me for just under a year. The sound is very good for this quality, settings can be made for the various genres, but it doesn't excel. That was about it. After about three to four months, there were dropouts in Internet reception for the saved stations despite a LAN connection to the router, which was not rectified after an automatic update. For some channels, it is not even possible to establish a connection. The programming and menu navigation are hardly worth mentioning,
not self-explanatory without instructions. The instructions are poorly explained!
In the meantime, I have disposed of the device and bought another one.Pro
- Good sound
Contra
- Internet radio not usable
- not intuitive
- Menu navigation and programming

Usability is a disaster
Without a degree in rocket science, the menu navigation is impossible to understand!
Even the sound quality doesn't help.
Example: Move a saved station from position 7 to 1:
From 7 to 6: Select station in favourites - arrow to the right - wheel down two clicks - enter - left - wheel up one click
From 6 to 5: Select station in Favourites - Arrow right - Wheel down two clicks - Enter - Left - Wheel up one click
From 5 to 4: Select station in favourites - Arrow right - Wheel two clicks down - Enter - Left - Wheel one click up
From 4 to 3: Select station in favourites - Arrow right - Wheel two clicks down - Enter - Left - Wheel one click up
From 3 to 2: Select station in favourites - Arrow right - Wheel two clicks down - Enter - Left - Wheel one click up
From 2 to 1: Select station in favourites - Arrow right - Wheel two clicks down - Enter - Left - Wheel one click up
Pro
- Sound quality
Contra
- Menus
